In this second part of two webinars on fruit and veg security, we focus in on UK fruit production with Ali Capper who grows apples and hops on the Herefordshire/Worcestershire border and is the chair of British Apples & Pears, a grower-funded apple and pear trade group. British apples are our national fruit, yet British-grown apples represent only 40% of all the apples sold in the UK.
